Author: Henry Francis Lyte (1793-1847) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #649 (2013) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Topics: Canticles and Affirmations of Faith Lyrics: 1 God of mercy, God of grace,
show the brightness of thy face;
shine upon us, Saviour, shine,
fill thy church with light divine;
and thy saving health extend
unto earth's remotest end.
2 Let the people praise thee, Lord;
be by all that live adored;
let the nations shout and sing
glory to their Saviour King;
at thy feet their tribute pay,
and thy holy will obey.
3 Let the people praise thee, Lord;
earth shall then her fruits afford;
God to man his blessing give,
man to God devoted live;
all below, and all above,
one in joy and light and love. Scripture: Psalm 67 Languages: English Tune Title: HEATHLANDS
God of mercy, God of grace
